Anyone else hear the crickets and/or the soft chimes of a grandfather clock, slowly driving us all mad?

All part of our brilliant strategy

We've got deployment finished, from the looks of it.

Jabba - can you put it in a vassal log and send me the link? 

I’m working this morning, playing TI3 tonight. I have a window sarvo to do game things.

Cheers

Out enjoying the weather rn, as soon as I get back I’ll have that ready for you.

Ok, deployment is complete.

I hope.

This link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1dKPOltbXUYEvTznt4USs0gVgNJ3aSfic should take you to a vassal save file - you can download and open as a saved game (not a game log) to see ranges, etc. Let me know if it does not work.

 

This link: https://imgur.com/a/JVig2BC should take you to a .png for the start of turn 1.

Players need to do the following:

1. Set command stack (these won't be on the vassal log file, in case someone looks a few turns ahead to cheat).

2. Reveal turn 1 order 

3. Give Repair, then Squadron, then shooting, then move orders

4. Send these to me via PM for each ship.

 

Players should now cease to communicate privately. All further communication is via this thread only (pretend we are all players at the same table - we can all hear what the others say.

Turn 1 orders are now due!

I will ping anyone who has not replied in a timely manner - say 18 hours from now.

Thanks!

What? NO radio communication? No encryption?

If you worked out a code in advance you can use it now.

Didn't realize we needed to

My remark was well intended sarcasm.

They're after you, clon!

[Bertie Wooster 1,857]

@idjmv Make sure to take a close look at the vassal file; I think you said "Bolt" would be your GSD in the back, but I think I mixed it up and put Bolt on the far right, and Odin in the back.

[clontroper5 4,232]

@LTDdo you have a perfered for at for our orders? 

[Bertie Wooster 1,857]

There's a template in the first post.

I used GNIP's suggestion for showing squadron placement. 

[GhostofNobodyInParticular 2,493]

My orders are submitted, as I won't be around by the deadline, so unfortunately I'll miss any planning communication my squadmates have . . . hopefully they don't inadvertently crash into me. . .

Private message via this forum.

Remember to set all your command dials for each ship. 

Also, send orders for all your ships and squads.

[LTD 2,241]

Ok, I have orders from 3 players.

Waiting on:

Orders in.

Uhmmm... Houston, we have a problem... I recently reinstalled Win10 and since then Vassal doesn't open any modules. I tried to fix this for the past few days, without any success. So either I can make all my calls without any measurement (comm noise just before the battle begins?) or someone should take over my forces until further notice...
